The night we've all been waiting for is finally here! Ben Higgins's season of The Bachelor has officially kicked off, and it definitely didn't let us down. In fact, the show offered up some of the best limo arrivals we've seen in a while -- and plenty of drama.

Remember the cupcake from the last season of The Bachelorette? That was nothing compared to what we saw on Monday night. Unicorn masks, a live mini horse, a hoverboard, and a woman with a rose on her head? Yeah, we'd say Ben had a hard time picking out his First Impression Rose winner, who, by the way, was Olivia Caridi, the news caster.

And for the biggest surprise of the night? Former contestants Becca Tilley and Amber James's big arrivals post the traditional limo stuff. They definitely surprised Ben, and they both received a rose.

And of course, there was a standout villain, as always. From the minute 25-year-old Lace appeared on the scene and stole a kiss from Ben during their first meeting, she started judging everyone else ... and looking for drama ... and more wine. Really?

It all came to a boiling point when Lace called Ben out for not looking at her enough during the rose ceremony -- wait, what? -- and picked a fight with him over his eye contact. Ben wasn't exactly receptive to it, and although she survived this rose ceremony, it wouldn't be too surprising if she didn't stick around for too many more!

Regardless, it's obvious this is going to be an unforgettable season. With this much drama on the first night? It's bound to be good!
